Today’s post is all about transformation and embracing a new chapter in style. I’m thrilled to share a fabulous journey I’m embarking on with a new client who’s stepping into an exciting leadership role at a dynamic startup. After spending the past few years in the cozy comfort of athleisure wear while working remotely, she’s ready to redefine her wardrobe for her in-person role. And trust me, her new look is going to be nothing short of iconic!
When I asked her about her ideal style, she instantly referenced Emily in Paris—specifically, Sylvie’s impeccably chic wardrobe. And who can blame her? Sylvie’s style is the epitome of sophisticated, minimalist, and powerful. It’s exactly what my client wants to project in her new role: confidence, elegance, and authority.
To curate this new wardrobe, I turned to some of the most esteemed designers who know how to deliver on those criteria: Akris, Max Mara, and Veronica Beard. These brands are masters of blending timeless sophistication with modern power.
Here’s the scoop on what we’ve chosen:
- Akris: Known for its clean lines and luxurious fabrics, Akris provides the perfect foundation for a wardrobe that’s both sophisticated and versatile. Think tailored blazers and sleek trousers that transition effortlessly from boardroom meetings to after-work events.
- Max Mara: This brand’s minimalist approach is ideal for creating a streamlined, polished look. The pieces from Max Mara, such as classic trench coats and elegant shift dresses, ensure that each outfit exudes an air of effortless grace and power.
- Veronica Beard: Combining modern flair with timeless designs, Veronica Beard offers pieces that are perfect for making a statement. From structured blazers to chic skirts, these items are designed to be mixed and matched, providing endless outfit possibilities that radiate confidence.
